Women who may be successful with tubal ligation reversal are those whose the procedure included either the excision of a tiny section of the fallopian tubes, or those whose tubal ligation was accomplished with the help of clips or rings placed around the tubes to stop ova released during the ovulation cycle from moving through the tubes to the uterus.

Generally, the rates of success for tube ligation reversal can differ from 20 to 70%.

Tube ligation reversal procedure involves microsurgery to rejoin the fallopian tubes. Some parameters have a direct effect on the potential for a successful tubal reversal operation. As the fallopian tube’s diameter differs from end to end, a better chance for positive results occurs when the diameters of the two remaining ends of the tube are about equal. In cases where the two ends of the tubes are of different diameters (for example, a smaller end of tube close to the uterus is being attached to a bigger end near the end of the tube), rates of success for getting pregnant are smaller.
